Come to the barracks
On the way to the barracks, I realized that the soldiers were all lovely people, and I gradually became familiar with the people around me.
Brother Na Long is the general and deputy general of the Xiao Battle Battalion, from Lijia Village. He was also arrested to join the army, and now he has been a soldier for five years, and several times his life was almost confessed, but he did not leave when he could leave the army after the war.
In addition, the two strong men beside Brother Long are twins, they are voluntary soldiers, and they have the ambition to protect their families and defend the country. The one with a birthmark on his face is his brother Xiong Da, and the other one without a birthmark is his younger brother Xiong Xiao. If it weren't for the birthmark on the face, it would be really difficult to recognize, and both of them were a little dark.
And I am more familiar with a little brother who was also arrested, named Shi Feng, nineteen years old, he came voluntarily. When asked him why, he would just smile and look into the distance, and then be silent, maybe there was something unspeakable.
……
Passing by a wood, it was getting dark, so Brother Long told us to rest in place, and distributed a piece of bread to each of us, and many hungry people had already gobbled it up.
Brother Long also ate a large cake, then took a big sip of water, and walked over and sat down in the villagers' pile. Some of the people who resisted and were beaten during the day when they were caught during the day shrank back in fear.
"Folks, I know that some of you are reluctant to join the army, but there are too few soldiers in the country now, and most of them died in the last battle. Now the pardon of the neighboring countries is eyeing up and preparing to wage war against our country. As men, if we don't protect our family and protect our families, can we still be considered men? Brother Long's impassioned words drove the atmosphere of the audience.
Many of the people who were still complaining along the way, thinking of sneaking away, lowered their heads.
"Yes, anyway, if our lives can be exchanged for the stability of the country and the safety of our families, then I am willing." A villager stood up with a determined expression.
One after another, many villagers expressed their willingness to serve as soldiers, and some even chatted with some soldiers about their daily life and made jokes.
An older uncle stood up and said with a laugh, "Brothers, when we come back from the war, I will introduce you to you without a mother-in-law!" ”
The people below laughed, and some of the young men who had not yet married their wives were excited.
"Uncle Quan, that's what you said!" A relatively young man jumped straight to his feet.
"Hey, little brother, you look like you're only fifteen or sixteen, so anxious to marry a daughter-in-law?" I teased him, and he bowed his head in embarrassment.
"My mother said it would be better to marry a daughter-in-law early." The man scratched the back of his head, looking shy.
In this way, we chatted for a long time, until it was a little late at night, Brother Long told us to rest early, and we had to hurry early tomorrow, and we went to bed one after another.
I lay on the ground and looked at the stars in the sky with my eyes open, I hadn't seen them in a long time.
After a long time, everyone around me was asleep, and only a few soldiers were taking turns to keep vigil, and I slowly fell asleep.
……
We left early in the morning and did not arrive at the barracks until noon.
As soon as we arrived at the barracks, we were given soldiers' uniforms, and then we were rushed to prepare for the drill.
We were led by a man in black armor who felt like he was no ordinary soldier. He was also followed by Brother Long, and there was a middle-aged man he didn't know. It's a little far away, and I can't see what the people in black armor look like, I guess it's the same as Brother Long, after all, they are all wars.
We all waited quietly for the man above to speak, but he just watched us quietly.
"New soldiers, according to the rules of our Xiao Battalion, we need to find a representative from among you." Brother Long stepped forward, very serious.
"But how do you choose?" The people below were chattering and talking.
"It's very simple, you can compete with me, and you can fight me for a few rounds." I saw a woman walking slowly towards us.
With black hair, a princess bun with a green beaded hairpin on the bun, and a little tassel hanging from it, the tassel swayed when she walked. She has a fair face and soft skin. The eyebrows are slender and picturesque, and the eyes are sparkling like stars. There is a small mouth under the small bridge of the nose, the lips are thin, the corners of the mouth are slightly curved upward, and the whole face is delicate and beautiful, so refined, there is no trace of fireworks in the world. She was wearing a shirt with a white background and a white pleated skirt, so pure and lovely.
"Nonsense, why did you run out again." I saw that the man in black armor, who had not spoken, spoke, and his tone was a little angry and helpless.
"Hehe, Brother Siyu, my mother has agreed to let me come to the barracks with you, it's boring for you not to be alone." The girl hugged Na Siyu's arm and sprinkled coquettishly.
I felt a chill in my body, goosebumps rose, and it seemed that I was very resistant to this kind of coquettish girl.
"Whatever you want." Seeing that Na Siyu had no choice but to take this sister, he acquiesced to her suggestion and turned to leave.
As soon as he left, the girl blossomed, "Come on, this princess hasn't moved her muscles and bones for a long time." ”
Princess? As soon as the people below heard her say that she was a princess, they all stepped back, leaving me alone in front.
By the time I realized that I had already had time to step back, I had already been targeted by the girl.
"Hey, little soldier, come up and talk to this princess." The princess smiled at me, and I always felt a sense of foreboding.
